MY LITTLE NIECE ROO...

ROO BUG that is! She's such a cute little stinker. we love her!

just a few layouts I did while scrappin at alicia's. Why does it seem like you get more stuff done when you scrap at someone else's house. I don't get it?! We had fun scrappin, and Gulianna had fun as well. She's always a good little booger!!!

Scrappin' Weekend and Pampered Chef Party

last weekend I went over to Alcia's house to a Pampered Chef party, it's was pretty fun. Not ever being to one I wasn't sure what I was getting into. I don't usually like that kind of parties, bc you usually feel obligated to purchase something even if you didn't like the products all that well. I loved most of the products that were demonstrated, my absolute favorite was the heavy duty cooking wear. I'm definately getting me some pots and pans from beckah, she was awesome!!

Well what do you know, more RIBBON! Like I've said before Alicia and I are so addicted to RIBBON, we just can't seem to get enough. I have 10 of these jars full of Ribbons all different colors. I think Alicia has 16 jars, she definitely needs some counseling, LOL !!!

And last but not least, my pretty paisley rug! I fell in love with this rug when christytomlinson posted it on her blog!! I so, soo copied her. I'm sure she won't mind.

so that's it for now, I hope you enjoy my scrap room as much as I do. LATERS!!!

more of my favorite embellishments FLOWERS, BUTTONS and RIBBON!!!

My collection of cardstock, I'm not sure if I'll ever go thru this much but, oh well, it like how all the pretty colors look. hehehe!!!

I love, love, loooovee, the making memories paint. the possibilities are endless.

the bookcase where I keep some of my albums and magazines.

MY scrappin room!!!

it sure is soo nice to have your very own scrap place, a whole room all to yourself. A place where you can sit down and unwind, scrap a little and just enjoy the free time you may have to do whatever you love doing. Sometimes when I come home from work exhausted and stressed I head straight for my scrapbooking room and just read a magazine, that usually helps me forget about work and gets me inspired to scrap a page or two.

I took a few pictures of some of my favorite things in my room, so here they are...

these two pictures were an inspiration by abeautifulmess missElsiecake i totally love her style.

I love these Heidi Swapp color pencils they are so handy for when you use your own handwriting on your layouts, to color in some of your words. They totally make your handwriting look soo much cuter! I'm trying to use more of my own writing in my layouts as opposed to typing.

these are some cute little jars I got at the dollar store a few years back. I love the dollar store, they have some way cute stuff sometimes! I like to keep my buttons, small blooms and other small embellishments.

YESTERDAY....

after work I went over to scrapalicious to hang out with Gulianna and Alicia for awhile. I helped Alicia put out some new product and all the Easter stuff. she's got some cute Rusty Pickle paper, I love it. Gulianna was being such a good baby, like usual. she's a total sweetheart!

these are just a few snapshots I took of the store last time I was there. Alicia has some really cute home decor stuff as well as some really, really cute ribbon.

I can't believe how addicted to ribbon we are! It's pretty ridiculous I'm starting to realize that!

I cannot wait till Thursday night! Alicia and I signed up to take a digital class at expressthemoment our local scrap shop here in Idaho Falls. Shelly Brown is the one teaching it and I'm so excited to learn how to do all sorts of stuff on my blog.

Little Diva!!

This Saturday while I was in Blackfoot I also met up with my girl Laura @ BHS where Victoria was having dance competitions. She is such a little dancer, she totally cracks me up!! Laura is looking so cute pregnant, she's due at the end of April and is having another girl!! YAY!! Man, seeing a lot of my close friends being pregnant and having babies all at the same time makes me sad =( , and kinda makes me want a baby right now too!! That way they'd be close in age, that would be kinda fun!

here's a few snapshots I took of Victoria while @ dance competitions. She is such a little Diva!! You don't even have to ask if you can take a picture of her, she'll just say "claudia can you take my picture?" then she'll just give me all these cute little poses and say " I wanna see". She's a natural at this whole modeling thing, what a cutie!

This weekend...

I got to visit my beautiful friend Bob!! she's such a sweetheart!!! she had her baby shower thisSaturday and I missed it, so I decided to still drive down to Blackfoot and meet up with her at her house. She looks soo good for being almost due!! bobi will be having a little girl at the end of this month, I'm so excited for her it's her first baby.

It's been a while since Daniel and I went out on double date. So this weekend we out with my good friend Patty and her husband Luis. We had such an awesome time bowling!!! The guys got to talk about bikes and all that stuff guys talk about, while Patty filled me in on what's happening in Blackfoot!

we had a great weekend!! thank god for friends!

I'm slowly figuring this out!!

Here's a few more pictures from

our bowling date @ BOWLERO, I love that place

it's fun!!

I KNOW, I KNOW!!!

some layouts I worked on last weekend

I totally suck at blogging, but that's only cause I've been so strapped for time lately. I've been trying to get caught up on some things at work and I've been a little stressed so I haven't even been thinking about blogs. I'm free tonight just a little earlier than usual so I guess I'll post a few pictures from earlier this week!
